Prior to the attack on Ft. Sumter in 1861, many northerners were willing to allow the Southern states to secede. At that point, factions from both the north and south demanded military action and Lincoln called 75,000 volunteers into action.
The country formed by the southern states in 1861 was called the Confederate States of America (CSA). It was established by 11 southern states that seceded from the United States, primarily over issues related to slavery and states' rights. The Confederacy existed until its defeat in 1865 during the American Civil War.
They seceded one by one, following South Carolina, until there were seven Confederate states by the time of Lincoln's inauguration. Following the attack on Fort Sumter, Lincoln called for volunteer troops to put down the rebellion, and four more states joined the Confederacy.
The union of the South during the American Civil War was known as the Confederate States of America (CSA). Formed in 1861, it comprised 11 Southern states that seceded from the United States in response to issues such as states' rights and slavery. The Confederacy existed until its defeat in 1865, after which the Southern states were reintegrated into the Union.
Use Confederate States when referring to the Confederate States of America from the US Civil War. It is a noun and a proper name so it should be capitalized as United States is capitalized. In the example: Three Confederate states did not secede from the Union until May of 1861, Confederate again would be capitalized but states would not be. This is because states in this case does not refer to the whole Confederacy. It is like: There are 50 states in the United States.
This is unclear. 'Secede' is what the eleven Southern states did. As for 'succeed', nobody succeeded Lee in the post of Confederate General-in-Chief. He occupied that post until the surrender.
Type your answer here..they didnt secede until president lincoln told the country it was not ok for every state to have their own laws and then the southeners seceded

Two important elements need to be recognized concerning secession. It was not until President Lincoln called for 75,000 volunteers to end the Southern rebellion that the remaining 4 states of Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee and Arkansas joined the Confederacy. Among the earlier seceding states, Texas was split in the decision to secede. The "father" of Texas, Sam Houston, did not want to secede, Texas was "forced" into the Confederacy by powerful Texan leaders.
In the US Civil War, border states were states which did not secede from the Unites States but in which slavery remained legal until 1865. These states include Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland, and Missouri; West Virginia is also sometimes considered a border state.

This word for this is a malapropism--someone has used the wrong word mistakenly for the right one. What the person meant to say was "Your candidate did not concede defeat until this morning." To concede is to admit defeat; your candidate waited until this morning to admit that the other fellow won the election. To secede is to break away from, or to form a splinter group. It's what the Confederate States did in the American Civil War.
Buchanan had similar ideology to Lincoln until the Southern leadership attempted to kill him. After his near death experience, Buchanan did not oppose succession.
